You're not alone. I haven't heard anything since my application was transferred to Ottawa on October 20th :|

I haven't even started background check yet and I have the most straightforward case.

Just for comparison your file was transferred to Ottawa October 20th. Some of us here now getting DM had our transfer late August/Early September (for me it Was August 22nd!). That means you're about 1-2 months behind in the queue. For most, it took on average 3 months after file transfer to get an in-process background check. So for you, this is the month you should expect a background check-in process; so be a tiny bit more patient you're almost there!!! ;)

Thanks!!! yeah, it's just slightly disheartening when you see files sent in after yours going through quicker for no reason other than lazy officers.
I shouldn't complain, cause I've already been in Canada for over a year now and able to work. Sometimes I get caught up in everyone's excitement and cant help but think like AHHH where is mine?!?! forgetting a lot of people don't get to be with their spouse during this wait!

Yes definitely true. A lot of the speed depends on luck to be honest. But the good news is you're already in Canada with your spouse so definitely a good thing! :)

MyCIC says background check in progress. But ECAS says DM.

So I'm not sure.

Did background check just change to that today? Or did that change on MyCIC a while back?
